Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

Chapter 199: Chapter 178: Maritime Boundary Division_3

The ropes were simply left where they were and not collected, followed by pushing the kayak toward the sea.

"Do you need my help?"

Tao Yu looked at Cheng Lixue, who was somewhat afraid of the waves because she had never seen the sea, and asked.

"I would trouble Young Master Tao."

Cheng Lixue didn't try to act tough and, with a slightly blushing face, was lifted by the waist by Tao Yu and leapt into the seawater with a bit of a yelp.

This caused her to cling onto Tao Yu like an octopus, letting him swim and place her onto the easily capsizable kayak.

But, after all, she was still a person of the martial world and managed to stabilize her emotions.

On the other side, things weren't so 'gentle' for Zhang Hao.

Little Black's tail curled around, amidst his screams, half drowning him with seawater while dragging him onto another kayak.

Since Little Black's strength application wasn't as precise as Tao Yu's, the kayak directly capsized, forcing Zhang Hao to cling desperately to the kayak, with half his body submerged in the water.

Luckily, the climate here wasn't the polar type of Alaska, and the seawater temperature was above ten degrees.

For an ordinary person, this would definitely be unbearable for an extended period, but for someone like Zhang Hao, who possessed Inner Strength, it was possible to endure for a longer time, and Little Black was also there to ensure his safety.

The kayaks had about two days' worth of mineral water and food, so even if it wasn't Peach Blossom Island or if the old Yellow villain didn't feed them, there was a little room for error.

Uh, moreover, for Tao Yu himself, in extreme cases, absorbing Free Energy and the power of the earth was enough to sustain daily needs. The main concern was that it might be harder for the other two.

Sitting in the kayak, holding Cheng Lixue's damp body, which smelled faintly of seawater, Tao Yu found it quite convenient. Having previously been blessed by wealthy women, he thought he could easily remain unmoved by others, but now he even entertained the idea of improving his [Riding] proficiency.

But he soon suppressed the thought and said to Zhang Hao in the kayak next to him,

"Brother Zhang, we're setting off. You'd better try to climb onto the kayak; otherwise, I'm afraid you'll get too cold."

"Okay, got it."

Zhang Hao scrambled onto the kayak and laid there without daring to move. Then Little Black started pushing the kayak forward from behind.

On this end, Tao Yu said to Cheng Lixue, still holding on to him,

"Lady Cheng, I'll have to trouble you to hold onto me during the trip, as I need to free my hands to paddle."

"Oh, okay."

Cheng Lixue, looking at Tao Yu's handsome face with a faint blush on her cheeks, hooked one hand around his neck while the other naturally explored downward.

This left Tao Yu, who was paddling, with a stupefied expression.

Wait a second, you've misunderstood me; I really need to paddle!

However, considering the mental strength he had implanted, which made her cold toward others but seemingly less defensive toward himself, he could only increase his paddling speed to quickly get out of sight of Zhang Hao trailing behind.

Then, before Zhang Hao's eyes, he sped away with his senior sister into the distance…

Indeed, the speed of controlling the kayak after undergoing Deification a second time was like cutting through waves with the wind. Even with Little Black's tail almost turning into a propeller, he couldn't keep up.

Halfway through their journey at sea, just after their first round, Cheng Lixue nearly slipped into the sea but was quickly scooped up by Tao Yu.

Tao Yu even took the chance to glance back, and upon widening his view, indeed saw the Bering Strait, originally adjacent to Alaska, on the side.

With exceptional eyesight, Tao Yu could see the sea level there rising hundreds of meters higher than here, like water blocked in a fish tank, occasionally striking the world's barrier.

Crucially, beneath the world's barrier, a waterfall, much like a dam releasing floodwater, had truly appeared, spraying out a vast amount of mist and creating a clear rainbow from afar.

It was evident that the world's barrier of this world had not entirely stopped the water from the other side, as it continued to pour over here, though for the moment it didn't seem much.

"My, if this continues, the sea levels of these two worlds will eventually even out. I wonder how much of this world will be submerged..."

Although he felt somewhat moved inside, Tao Yu's actions did not stop; after all, the collapse wasn't imminent, and his only concern was to get the things he wanted while he could...
